The Centaurus High School Robotics Club competed in the FIRST Robotics Competition in Denver last weekend. They seeded 8th out of 48 teams after the qualification rounds which allowed them to compete in the finals. During the finals the team's alliance finished 4th place. The team also received the award for the highest seeded Rookie Team. This was a fantastic effort by the students at Centaurus High School as well as the teachers and mentors from Ball Aerospace particularly since it was their first year in the competition.
